Just before the RAM spike, I bought a System76 workstation with
512GB of RAM, because I need 4GB per core, and it has 128 ht
cores. (Threadripper CPU.)  It's still boxed on its pallet,
swapping it in to replace this system will be quite an operation.

It's a beefy tower system -- they ship them on a pallet.

I'm picturing a full-size pallet hauled by a forklift, but I assume
it's smaller than that?  What keeps the box secured to the pallet?
How did they get it to your door?

It's a smaller pallet, but wooden, with the box strapped to
it securely.

I thought they would forklift it, but the delivery guy was strong,
threw it on his shoulder and walked it to the door.  I think it
weighs something like 50lbs.
